The version of Junos OS installed on the remote host is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the JSA11280 advisory.

  - A vulnerability in the processing of inbound IPv6 packets in Juniper Networks Junos OS on QFX5000 Series     and EX4600 switches may cause the memory to not be freed, leading to a packet DMA memory leak, and     eventual Denial of Service (DoS) condition. Once the condition occurs, further packet processing will be     impacted, creating a sustained Denial of Service (DoS) condition. The following error logs may be observed     using the show heap command and the device may eventually run out of memory if such packets are received     continuously.
